Hey girls,

Seemed like I've disappeared from the face of the earth right? Nope, I have been on every week to check for any updates, but didn't really have the time to sit and write, sorry =(.
How's everything with everyone?

As for me, I'm still struggling to continue the renovations. We've finished the bedroom (just need some more furniture), and painted the kitchen still waiting for it to be tiled. The washroom is by far the toughest and longest process in this entire reno. At first, Alfred and I were thinking of just updating the look and fresh paint, but in the end we ended up gutting the whole entire washroom and making our own shower instead of using the unit shower. Every corner we turned, new problems arised. The original bugdet for the washroom was $1000 boy did we go over budget we're sitting at about $3000 right now. Almost finished the washroom though, thank god. Next will be the little hallway, gotta put up new drywalls and make our own built-in cabinets for the toiletry since the washroom is a tad bit too small to accommadate it. Then last but not least it'll be the living room and that shouldn't take up too much time since it just need new paint and sponging the fireplace white.

Other than the reno, i've been trying to get my butt back in school. I want to find the right career for me. Something challenging and rewarding. I'm really interested in dental hygiene and Shirley has helped me out. I have two choices, either go to George Brown or private school (which i have to pay double the amount for tuition). I will automatically be accepted to a private school as long as i have the fund. As for George Brown, it's VERY competitive, therefore my chances are slim to none. I've been researching and attended some information sessions at George Brown and I've found a solution. I'm going to take these academic upgrading courses they offer at GB, which will offer me courses on writting the entrance examination to any colleges, and since my college of choice is there as well, the guidance told me my chances are much greater. It's a stepping stone not just only to get into college but to be fully prepared. Statistics has it that 30-40% of students drop out the first semester. And I do not want to fall into that...soo i'm gonna take it a step at a time(slowly but surely). It's going to take me 6 months longer than anticipated but I REALLY WANT IT!! I hear you girls complaining about school and real jobs, and I am soooo jealousy, I have too much free time and nothing accomplish. So hopefully when i'm in school it's my turn to complain about the sh!t load of assignments hehe...humans are so hard to satisfy! LOL

Let's meet up SOON....I miss ALL you girls. And sorry about the last outting, i wished i went with you girls instead of the "album release" soooo boring!

X.O.X.O, Mya
